The 2015 ACC Player, Setter and Scholar-Athlete of the Year, George helped Louisville to conference championships in three different leagues: Big East, American and ACC. She was a three-time first team all-conference selection earning accolades in the American (2013) and the ACC (2014 and 2015).

Also in 2015, George was crowned Miss Kentucky USA and went on to finish in the top 11 of the Miss USA pageant while receiving the event’s “People Choice Award.” She graduated from Louisville magna cum laude in three years, with a degree in communications and a minor in sports administration.

Following graduation, George got her start in broadcasting at WDRB in Louisville as the station’s sports anchor and reporter covering everything from Louisville and Kentucky football, basketball and baseball to the Kentucky Derby. Most recently, George was the Milwaukee Bucks’ team sideline reporter for the 2018-19 season. She provided in-game hits and contributed to pre- and post-game shows on Fox Sports Wisconsin, along with reporting on the team’s digital/social media platforms.

“As a former Louisville volleyball player, I have many fond memories of competing in the ACC,” said George. “Now as a broadcaster, earning the opportunity to return to my roots, and cover the 15 elite institutions and their talented student-athletes is truly humbling. I’m very excited to join ACC Network just in time for its debut. Everything this conference does is first class and I’m certain the ACCN will be no different.”
